Answer:
$20.45
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the Bayside Bugle charges $18 for the first 20 words and there is more than 20 words in the ad you take 27-20 and you get 7 additional words.
Now we know that we already have to pay $18 for the first $20 words.
Since we have 7 additional words we multiply that by 0.35 cents and you get $2.45.
Next we add up our two numbers (2.45+18) we get the total of $20.45 fro a 27-word ad.
I hope this helps :)
